COlOred Society Notes.

l went,I saw, admired, the installation
OF the officers of the Precious Jewel Taber-
nacle, at the City Hall, on the night of the
21st inst. Thursday being the day set apart
for holding picnic and barbecue, the
members of the society and their friendsre-
paired to Russell's Grove, where they saught
and met the Goddess of pleasure and recre-
alton. To them she opened her storehouse
and they Toasted bountifully upon the viands
of the season. Finally the hour for depart
ure came and the gallant Knightsiand merry
Daughters began reluctantly to wend their
way homeward, from whence they were soon
to 60 to the City Hall, where before large
audience they were to appear, for the first
time, dressed in the Regalia of the order,
and bearing in their hands the emblems of
the various Offices into which they were to
be installed. AT given hour the procession
filed into the hall under the direction and
care of Rev. Mathew Campbell who, as
master of ceremonies, exhibited his skill as
a tacLician and by the assistance of Will
Breezy installed the following officers: Chief
Preceptress, Elizabeth Martin; Chief Re-
corder, Sallie Creath; Chief Treasurer,
Laura Creath; Chief Priestess, Stella White
ner; Vice Priestess, Susan Denwoody; Inner
Sentinel, Julia Cites. At the conclusion of
these impressing ceremonies G. A. Maston
was called upon to address the order, which
he did in his happlest mode. At this juno
ton the installation was declared off, and the
fun of the evening began in earnest. May
the Gallant Knights and the Merry Daught-
ers ever live and be happy.
There will be an old-fashioned camp
meeting commenced at De Soto on the 14th
inst. Rev. Abanatha is booked for the open
ing sermon. Now, if the elder desires to
make the sermon old-fashioned indeed, he
will have to lay off his coat and mix it with
considerable birthstone.
A little boy of Mrs. Williams met with a
serious accident not long since. He was
riding on a wagon with his father, and by
some means or other he fell off without his
father noticing it, and was picked up several
minutes afterwards by his brother in an I'M
conscious condition. When last heard from
he was improving slowly.
Mrs. Vaughn has exchanged her organ for
later style cottage organ. The organ is
one Of Story & Clark's best, and has a quad
ripple coupler, etc.
Mrs. Marian Russell took suddenly i'll Sum-
day night. When last heard from, one side
was partially paralvzed, and she was in a
critical condition. "Mother Russell" is one
of our most respected citizens and faithful
member of the Methodist Church.
Oh my, girls, your report concerning the

Harry Shaw Of Ste. Genevieye county, is
spoken of as a candidate for Congress in Mr..
Clardy's district. Mr.. Clardy will be can
didate for reelection himself If he doesn't
foolishly let the gubernatorial bee lead him
into retirement.-Cdsh-Boo
1t is fact that, without exception,
every man who has been Governor OF
the State of Missouri since the war has
ended his political career with the in
augural of his successor. The gods
might make an exception in the case
Of Mr.. Clardy; but we doubt greatly ii
he would desire it. But this is all spec

for gubernatorial honors. In either
event, he will hustle the man that

Ireland Proclaimed.

The news from Ireland is terrible.
An entire country in time of profound
peace, whose criminal courts lack their
accustomed occupation, is proclaimed
to be outside the pale and protection of
common law, and deprived of those
general guarantees and safeguards of
personal liberty which thousands have
died to establish and millions have
struggled to maintain. The procIama-
ton of which the Marquis of London
derry, of the hated family of Castle
reagh, is the fitting mouthpiece, is an
inexcusable declaration of uDprovOked
war on a defenseless and patient people.
The extraordinary authority now set
up over the whole of Ireland, excepting
the Orange county of Antrim alone, Is
the most irresponsible and despotic ev-
er devised under any government pre-
tending adherence to constitutional
forms. A general In conquered terri
tory may achieve peace of death such
as once reIgned in Warsaw. but he
is accountable to his chief commander,
king or council. But to whom
are the special commissioners under
the Grimes act to be responsible? What
which any citizen can have practical
appeal? Under the Tory policy of
coercion, the mockery that is left of
"the law of the land " there is no re-
dress, no refuge. It is the old law of
the curfew hour once more, for there is
no ofense-from being abroad at night
fall to imagining vain things against
the Queen-for which any unfortunate
man or woman in all the broad coun-
ties OF the sad land but one may not BE-
arrested without a chance to answer to
complaint and be imprisoned without
limit.
Under this monstrous aggravation
what will the Irish do? Will they in
dignantly rise up in resistance? Or
will they, firm in the knowledge OF the
strength of their own righteous cause,
and recaging in the brutal policy of
their opponents the desperation of q
losing party, patiently suffering the

The following picture of untutored
manner, unsophisticated innocence and
amiable disregard of surroundings. is
taken from the Jackson Cdsh-Book:
"a couple were married at the court
house last Tuesday morning. After
the ceremony was over. the bride
climbed into the wagon that brought
her and her newly acquired to the city,
pulled off her shoes and stockings,
placed her feet upon the seat board
and trimmed her toenails. AS the
wagon was standing on the public
square, it is unnecessary to state that
the fair young wife was the cynosure
of many eyes,"

Charleston Democrat: "The Ironton
REGISTER reports the discovery, on
Pilot Knob, of a peculiar kind of.clay,
which, when first brought from the
earth, is similar to soapstone, and takes
a fine polish. There may be bonanza
in it. In Kansas q clay, which, from
the REGISTERS meager description, we
would say was alike OF similar, is ex-
tensively used in building. When first
taken from the ground, it may be FASH
Toned by saw and plane into any shape

hard and durable as stone, with creamy

are erected of the clay.

Ed. Register-As have sent you
several articles from the West, will
not skip Leavenworth-one of the I'm
est towns in Kansas.
Leavenworth has about 35,0 900 popu-
lation and has surrounding advantages
which tend to make it a great city some
day.
There are several large manufsctur-
ing companies located here. Some of
the largest stove manufacturing COM
panies in the West are situated here,
including the Great Western Stove
Company, which employs several hum
dred men; also, the Union Stove and
Machine Works, which employ great
mapy men.
The Missouri Pacific railway Com
pany are building an elegant railroad
depot which will be finished in few
weeks. Levenworth will, no doubt, in
few years become a great railroad
centre. There are now the following
roads running in here: Missouri Paci-
fic, Kansas Central, Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fee, Union Pacific; Kansas
City, Wyandotte and Northwestern &
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific.
There are also two or three projected
roads which will, no doubt, be built
shortly.
AS for places of interest for sight-seers
suppose there is no place in Kansas
two miles north is situated Fort Leav-
enworth, which is without doubt one
of the most beautiful places in this part
of the country. About fifteen hundred
soldiers are stationed there, it being
the headquarters of the Missouri d.
vision.
On the south at distance of about
three miles is located the Soldiers
Home, where can be found some fifteen
hundred old soldiers taken care Of by
the government. Near the Soldiers
Home is the State penitentiary where
are imprisoned some twelve or fifteen
hundred men.
Preparations are being made to sink
a natural gas well near the edge of
town. Experts say that gas can be
found in great quantity by going down
a few hundred feet. Work will begin
| at once.
This place suffered heavy loss by
fire few weeks ago to the extent of
several thousand dollars. understand
that the buildings burned will be re-
built shortly.
Prohibition is pretty strictly enforc-
ed here. Not an open saloon can be
found in the city, but several whiskey
'joints" are run on the sly. The in
dications now are that not many of
them will be found in few months, as
keepers of such places are being arrest
ed almost every day. E. s. a.,

HOGAN, Mo-, July "a, 1887.
Ed. Register-I saw your comments
on my article of last week. You say
you cannot comprehend what I meant
by my comments on the letter of the
President to Queen Victoria. know it
is very hard for party bosses to compre-
bend anything, except vote the ticket,
right or wrong. You will find good
many things In the near future that
will be hard for you to comprehend, as
the labor party don't intend to be bull
dozed any more. Instead of "Susan
Jane" wanting the President to pray
for q stroke of dynamite, he wanted
him to attend to the business of the
people who elected him, instead of
praying for long continuance in pow
er of the Queen of Terror of poor, op-
pressed people. We have too many
public servants who turn more time to
aristocrats than they do in filing their
public trust. will just say if all poll
ticians were as clear of attempting vio-
lence as the labor party. we would
have a paradise in the United States.
You want to know If "Susan Jane" is
sincere In wanting the people to read
something else besides politics. He
was; but did not want them to refrain
from politics, as you would have peo-
pie believe. You say when a man gets
too tony to take hand in politics he
ought to dry up and blow away. You
will see ssSusan Jane" in politics as
soon as you will want. You say when
q man takes a hand in politics you
wanted to gee it open and above board.
/ will assure you that we will do that,
and will not ring up to defeat the will
of the people. You further say it may
be depended upon that you will fight
organized labor to the utmost extent of
your poor ability. That is nothing
more than we expected, for you Dever
was Known to say anything in behalf
of the laboring party.
SUSAN JANE.
"Susan Jane" will please not put
words in our mouth. We did not say
we were opposed to organized labor"
Organized labor properly directed is as
eommendable as organized capital
properly directed. When organized
capital has attempted to dictate the
politics Of the country-to control the
votes of people dependent upon tive
have uueparinply deponpced the ont
rage at all times. So we say now that
. secret political OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
or 1t be a labor organization, or an or
ganization of capitalists-is un-Ameri-
can, and a menace to free institutions.
Besides, any intelligent workingman
who wants TO see the truth, and who
has no political ak to grind. cannot fail
to know that those who sin the sweat
of their brow earn bread" need no
better friend or truer champion than
the Democratic party. In this connec-
ton, see the article. headed, :" It was a
Democratic Congress-" in this paper.
The assertion that the REGISTER twas
never known to say anything In be-
half Of the laboring people" Is SO pal
pably wrong to all who. have read the
paper that 1t needs no denial. The
discussion, in consequences. will end
right here.-lED.
